Hello,

A device’s IP address is always exposed when it is connected to the internet. From a security perspective, this is not considered a particularly severe or concerning issue, as most devices these days are behind some kind of router which provides NAT and firewall functions or have some basic kind of firewall as part of the operating system.


As for Reason Anti Virus, in this post I listed some contact information I found for them: https://old.reddit.com/r/antivirus/comments/105hyyc/reason_cybersecurity/j3fst6y/

If you do not think you intentionally installed their software then I would strongly suggest calling or emailing them and requesting that their tech support walk you through uninstalling their software and getting rid of any remnants their uninstaller might have missed.

Be polite, but be firm and don’t take no for an answer: If they want to be viewed as a legitimate software company, they have to help people uninstall their software.

Let us know how it goes, because dealing with security software providers is a bit odd.

Each company has it’s own way of distributing and marketing it’s software: Some may only sell to home users, some to businesses, some may offer a free version, some may not, some may bundle their software with other products, and so forth. Regardless of the way they distribute their software, though, it’s not for other companies to make a judgement about whether to classify their software based on that choice.

Now, whether or not you provide assistance removing your own software, that is something another vendor can look at, and make some kind of determination as to whether that company is behaving like a legitimate business or not. That’s why I always say to reach out to a company for assistance removing their software, and to share the results. If someone reports difficulty in getting the software removed, it is a signal to all the other security companies out there that this one warrants a closer look.
